Phone number ☎️ 01162790172 👆 is reported as a persistent nuisance calling from a purported "household survey" or accident claims company, often involving silent calls or hang-ups. Callers may attempt to confirm previous number owners and have been accused of sharing personal details illegally. Multiple reports highlight aggressive or inappropriate behaviour, including rude language and refusals to respect requests to stop calling. The calls frequently originate from offshore call centres, causing concern for data privacy and potential scams. Despite assurances that no further contact would be made, victims report repeated calls and harassment. Many users recommend blocking the number and reporting it to relevant authorities such as the TPS and ICO. Caution is advised, especially as the callers may seek personal or sensitive information under false pretences.

7 yearsI just got a call on 11/06/19, picked up but couldn’t hear anything, then they just ended the call.7 yearsLydia told me, “There’s been a car crash, and it’s not your fault.”Lydia8 yearsSome woman called Molly, said she was from one of those accident claim companies. Sounded like an automated message.Molly9 yearsGot a call about some Household Survey but they used an old address of mine which I never updated. I took a few mins to answer their questions since I was bored anyway, but now I’m getting loads of calls and texts from different numbers about that same survey! Looks like they shared my number around without my say so!9 yearsI got a call on Monday 27/11/17 from a woman asking if a certain person used to have this number. I told her straight up, “No, they haven’t had it for nearly 4 years!” Then she just ended the call! Bit worrying that they knew the name linked to the number. Most people say this number's just a random dial, they don’t really know or care who picks up!9 yearsThis number rang me on Monday (27/11/2017), a woman on the line who wanted to speak to the previous owner of our landline. I told her that we’ve had this number for almost four years now, so it wouldn’t be possible. She just ended the call straight away.9 yearsToday I got called like 12 times by some bloke named Dave and a lady. They hid their digits, showing up just as 'number' on my phone. Told them I’m gonna report it, so fingers crossed they’ve given up now.Dave9 yearsThey keep calling but just hang up right away, never dropping a message or anything. I don't get what good comes out of these useless calls, they’re just a proper pain.9 yearsThey phoned me twice today, I asked them to stop, but I reckon they’ll ring again anyway.9 yearsThey rang me about 5 times within an hour, but everytime I picked up, no one was on the line.9 yearsNo one answered when I called. What’s the use of calling then? Anyway, I’ve blocked those annoying people now.9 yearsSuch a bother of a call!9 yearsSuch a hassle!9 yearsWhat a complete jerk!9 yearsBloody hell! Got a call from these lot about some survey for homes, right? I told the guy I couldn’t hear properly and he just snapped back with “F off you f*****g sod,” or something along those lines. Sounded like he was calling from some dodgy call centre overseas. Dunno, maybe he was having a rubbish day, but I was pretty stunned about the way he spoke to me. Not a great advert for his firm, that’s for sure!!!9 yearsI’ve already blocked 4 calls from these lot today. They just don’t quit. No way I’m picking up. They’re after personal details, definitely not to be trusted. Best to ignore and not pick up at all!9 yearsGot called twice within an hour, no one said a word. I’m gonna block their number for sure.9 yearsGot a call from some Indian call centre bloke calling himself "Steve", said he was from "House & Home". He wasn’t pushing any products but just had some questions about my house. I asked where he was calling from as the number had a Leicester STD code, but right after that he just cut off. Feels like a scam just trying to fish for personal info. Marked it as Dangerous and reported it to TPS and ICO here: https://ico.org.uk/concerns/nuisance-calls-and-messages/SteveHouse & Home.LeicesterTPSICOorguk9 yearsThis number rang me four times over a couple of days, asking about a house and home survey. The first time, I did the survey but made it crystal clear I didn’t want any of my info saved or shared, nor did I agree to be contacted again. The bloke said they were recording the call and assured me nobody would ring without my okay. Then my husband picked up the phone on the last call and told them to stop phoning us. The guy then said, “I spoke to your girlfriend, now she’s my girlfriend,” and just hung up. I got the number from 1471, but whenever I try calling back, it just doesn’t connect or isn’t recognised. Quite strange!9 yearsReceived 5 calls within 2 days. Answered the first one as it was a ‘research survey’ and they mentioned it was recorded, promising no further calls. They said the call was being recorded, so I told them they can’t legally share my info or pass it on without my permission, nor can anyone contact me again. Yet they called back that same afternoon saying I hadn’t been cooperative enough. The next day they phoned 3 more times and even told my husband “I spoke to your girlfriend yesterday, now she’s my girlfriend”. They’re still ringing me nonstop.9 yearsThey ring me like 3 or 4 times every hour. I’ve blocked the number but they haven’t caught on yet. Said it was some kind of “Household survey” and tried to find out if I rent or own my place. I told them it’s none of their business and owning or renting doesn’t change the fact I still need utilities. Blocked them right after that chat.9 yearsBless that call blocker! They just don’t give up, keep on ringing but my phone stays silent every time!9 yearsAnnoying calls that just stay silent, seriously they should be illegal, how dare they invade my privacy like that?9 yearsI picked up the phone, heard someone say something but couldn’t make it out, then they just ended the call.9 yearsThey've phoned me up three times today claiming they want to do a "survey".Submit Your Own Report (0116 279 0172)
